Is there any news regarding getting a refund from NSJB? Kasi a collection officer from their office named Erin Sol Bontigao is somehow fishing regarding this matter. 50% nga lang daw ang makukuha because of that Maceda Law plus kung anu anu pang deductions and was also asking kung sino na daw yung nakapagrefund. I saw in an earlier conversation that some buyers got their refunds back.So i just really wanna know if there's a progress already. Kasi in Victoria de Makati, we are asked to pay with interest after paying the full amount of the DP. It's really alarming na.

Hi I have the same situation now. I purchase a unit at Victoria de Makati turn over is supposedly 2014 but up to now the site is still far from what i expected it would be. Would also to ask for your help my number is 09178333792 i also want to get a full refund. Thank you.

Regardless of all concerns that I have read on this blog I recognized that all condominium projects even it's not under New San Jose Builders Inc. have delays but based on construction time frame accomplishing a condo building takes 6 to 7 years. So Regarding their project in VICTORIA DE MAKATI that I always hear comments that it must be delivered 2013 I think it's reasonable that now they are saying that it will be turn over on 2015 last qrtr...Since they launch this project Last qrtr of 2009 or 1st qrtr of 2010.. Well I bought a unit here last 2011 then I have completed 20% of my Down payment last year 2013..They are offering me something that I considered it as an ADVANTAGEThey are giving me an option to pay additional 15% Downpayment for another year and still without interest so my remaining balance which will be finance by the bank will be lessen. Another option is I can transfer all of my payments to their other project which other developer don't do transfer of payments to other projects or even to other towers in same project or they are just transferring a portion from your payment. However I am not considering the turnover date so I stick on the first option..Just Sharing this because some of us do complain because we don't look any positive aspects...

I've heard and review comments on this condo.. I understand that Its hard to accept that we have paid atleast 1/4 or even a half of the contract but still we are not occupying on the unit.. In my opinion I will give ample time for the developer to announce when is the very best time to occupy the unit for me to be safe enough.. Not to take risk my ownself unlike some developer is trying hard to fully occupied the unit but suddenly destroyed.. They just maintaining the safety of their client as well as their dignity as developer

HOW WILL U ACCEPT IF THEY DID NOT BECOME HONEST IN THE FIRST PLACE. ACCEPTING THEIR FAILURE WILL BE A PRECEDENT AND WILL BE FOLLOWED WITH OTHER DEVELOPER TO USE THIS CASE... UR SAYING FAILURE TO COMPLY IS OK?!!... TUMIGIL KA NGA SA SINASABI MO ... MALAMANG TAGA NSJBI MGA TO? MALINAWA ANG BATAS PD 957 SECTION 28... IBALIK NYO ANG PERA NAMIN!

sorry it took me a while to post my response. here is the detailed instructions that you might want to use to get your money back from this very deceiving company. Take note everything should be documented when it comes to them.

1. Your account with them should be current, they should not cancel your account due to non payment or else wala na kayong habol sa kanila. in my case hnde pa tapes ang dp when i asked for a refund, i am not sure if iba ang case pag nakapag full dp na kayo.2. if your account is current, submit a letter intending to withdraw your payments in their head office, sa kamuning, it should be detailed, the total amount you paid, the reason why you acquired the property and that their turn over promise was not met, attach a copy from HLURB that don't have a license to sell. have them receive the letter, they will say it will be reviewed by someone but i tell you, delaying tactic nila yun so that when your due date comes, mapipilitan ka magbayad. when i submitted my letter, i demanded that i get my pdcs before i leave the office. make a scene if you have too, thats what i did so nakuha ko pdcs ko.3. after 2 weeks of not hearing from then when i initially submitted my refund letter, i went back and they explained to me na wala na daw ako makukuha due to maceda law. nag hysterical ako, sigaw ako ng sigaw sa kanila, believe me immuned na sila dun, i went to imbestigador that time and they said that they cannot do anything about it, and that it should be handled by HLURB.4. i went to hlurb and filed a case thru a mediator, yung ang ginawa ko para walang bayad. my taxes should be working for me right,? trabaho nila yun to mediate between the developer and the buyer. after a month nai schedule ang meeting ko with the lawyer of nsjb, please make sure to followup with hlurb ang scheduled date, and make sure na attend kayo. ako kc, i did not take any chances, tawag ako ng tawag sa HLURb and even went there to check yung logbook nila for mediation. 5. my first meeting with the lawyer, very civil naman, explain nya yung reason ng company for not giving the money back since we signed a contract, dapat sabihan nyo ang lawyer na the contract is null and void since on their end wala pa silang license to sell, so dapat hinde sila magbenta at all.6. after a month, 2nd meeting with the lawyer, sabi nya they will grant the refund pero i schedule pa daw.7. after a month ulit, 3rd meeting, they gave me my refund pero minus the reservation fee of p10k, they they asked me to sign a quit claim, yung refund nila is pdc din na hinati sa dalawang check, kaloka, pero at least meron na akong hawak na refund, the quit claim indicates that it is only valid once they cleared the check

i hope this would be a great help to all of you. i am not sure if the same pa din ang process since this was over 2 years ago nung ginawa ko.
